Ali-Quarry II - Definitely. Plus Norton II,Frazier II and the Foreman fight. Okay,he did n't use his dancing feet much in the latter one but his...
Interesting thought,indeed. If a twenty something Ali was active in today's heavyweight scene,he'd maybe weigh 230 - 235 lbs. He'd probably...

Frazier could have got seriously hurt had he gone out for the final round. Ali was exhausted but could still time his punches and avoid...
